Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the maintenance of a jet engine, and particularly to a nozzle for cooling a jet engine for maintenance.
  • the present invention further concerns an apparatus for cooling a jet engine for maintenance and a method for maintenance of a jet engine.
  • the jet engine can be cooled by sucking air from the exhaust channel of the jet engine with a suction pipe arranged to the exhaust channel.
  • This can be made more effective by sealing the remainder of the exhaust channel for example with a plastic film and tape. Installing the sealing is, however, time consuming and difficult.
  • Publications CN 106494639 A and CN 104691777 A disclose arrangements for cooling aircraft engines.
  • Publications US 2011/0232697 A1 , WO 2008/025940 A1 and U.S. Patent no. 5,899,217 disclose arrangements for recovering waste water from clearing operations performed on aircraft engines.

  • the nozzle 12 comprises a suction channel 122.
  • the suction channel 122 is in fluid connection with the suction adapter 121 for sucking air from the suction adapter 121.
  • the suction channel 122 is arranged to be connected to an air suction device 13.
  • the suction adapter 121 has a round shape.
  • the round shape facilitates the connection to the exhaust channel 21 having a corresponding round shape.
  • the suction adapter 121 has a conical shape.
  • the suction adapter 121 comprises one rim 121a formed at the annular periphery of the conical shape.
